Is there anything in Black Mountain besides paid treatment?
Black Mountain has 5 AA groups, which is a different thing from treatment and a useful one next to it.
Does insurance pay for addiction treatment?
Usually some of it. The share depends on your plan rather than on the center. A plan can approve the detox and then decline the residential stay that was meant to follow it. Ask for a benefits check rather than an estimate, and ask what the check does not include.
Do I need medication to stop?
Medication assisted treatment means a prescribed medicine is part of the plan, alongside counseling rather than instead of it. Naltrexone works the other way and blocks the effect, so it needs a period of abstinence before it can be started. Ask whether the medication can start during detox or only after it ends.
